Prayer for Michael and All Angels
O Lord, King Eternal, send us your holy angels to defend us in both soul and body. Just as you have called us to share with them the blessedness of the world to come, may we follow their example and do your will on earth as it is done in heaven; through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Prayer for all places of conflict
Lord, we pray for the people of Ukraine, the Middle East and all places of conflict; give them a sense of hope in their situation. May they strengthen each other and receive the love and nourishment they deserve. We pray that peaceful resolutions may be found, and that they will all know the love of Jesus Christ.
Amen.
Prayer for the victims of natural disasters
God of compassion, hear our prayers for those who are affected by natural disasters: strengthen them in their hour of need, and grant them courage to face the future, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Prayer for the sick
We pray for those who are sick and who ask for our prayers: Marian, Mark, Mike, Tina, Norbu, Paul, Joan C, Emma. (We also remember silently in our hearts: Heather; Jackie; Ann; Dave; Daisy; Brenda; Monica; Hester, Kerry, Izabel, John, Douglas, Pat G, Val).
